I would hold off. For me to pay that kind of money, the car would have to be almost perfect and not need any additional work. An S351-R that you can't take past 4500 rpm???? That's no fun. [ June 16, 2006, 12:31 PM: Message edited by: S351-R ]

Oh yeah, 98 wasn't last year for S351's, but they did have a half dozen or so rollover 99's that were 2000's. So technically, 2000 was the last year.
Well yes and no. Yes, there were some S351s built on the 2000 chassis. However, since the S351s couldn't be emissions certified past 1999, cars that were built on the 2000 chassis were labeled as '99s. Saleen's official view is that 1999 was the final production year for the S351.

OK everyone this is my Saleen S-351. I guarantee that it is 100% authentic. I have a mild tune on the car right now which puts out that 575 to the tires. For all you Saleen guys that don't know... this car was only made in 1999 on top of that there were only 45 made. The 383 is a stroked out 351. Oh yeah I'll smoke the gt 500 and my car will be worth more down the road. I've had serious offers on the car but decided to keep it after all. I like rep'n the stang. I've raced a Lambo Mercelago on 580 and smoked that too!! I'll try to show up at the next function to show the car. See you there.
